How I Got Snubed

Brandon Fish

 

Well, FISTED ANALLY BY A CIRCUS MONKEY if the theme week topic and my player is too good to say they got snub-bed but Brandon Fish which is my GM character has. This is the story of how I got snub-bed twice in one off-season.

I got 2 great opportunities to be a GM in off-season tournaments, the tournaments were the JST and the Pro-AM. In both tournaments I put together one of the best teams in the tournaments but still didn't get a result that was needed.

In the JST I was chosen to be the GM for the Brigade and that was exciting as Brandon Fish got to make his debut as a GM. The process was interesting but if you really want to hear about that then you can go check out my Off-season article. Now the team was predicted to be a top 2 team by me based on the team I had put together. The Brigade started off very slow including being dead last after one day’s sims. After that bad time I found the lines and strategies that worked thanks to the help of McWolf my AGM and we started to climb the standings passing the Royals, the Warriors after a little of back and forth and then finally in the last two sims of the regular season part of the JST we passed the Yukon Rush. So by the end of the season we did finish 2nd but with a close match-up that was projected to go to 7 games in the first place happened. Brigade take the first two games looking like they will easily win and then the Rush came out of nowhere and welp the Brigade lost after having what looked like an easy path to the finals. At that point I thought it was just close and we were all good. Brandon had fun but was sad to not get a chance to take on the Steel which is a team that we had split the regular season with or at least close to it.

When Brandon got another chance to be a GM in the off-season but this time as the GM for the Bayern Munich Fish in the Pro-AM tournament and again put together one of the stronger teams in the tournament it was looking like it would be very easy to get 1st or 2nd in the regular season and the playoffs. The regular season went by in a breeze being 2nd and 7 more points than the 3rd place heat. This is where Brandon got completely snub-bed. The post-season came and we were going up against the heat to see who would get to play for 1st and who would get to play for 3rd. Somehow the Heat take full control of the series going up 3-0 until the Fish take game 4 to stay alive. Then the Heat won and the perfect chance to go for gold disappeared because of the Heat. For what should’ve been an easy series to win turned out to be a devastating loss. The Fish are now in a position that was not meant to happen, playing for 3rd. Being 15 points ahead of the 4th place Peacooks this was a very easy series for the Fish as the Fish will claim 3rd in a 4-0 series sweep.

 

This is how two great chances to play for 1st ended in 3rd place for Brandon Fish’s teams.
